(b) 9 (Pain/Longing) My Light.....

Rating: 5.0


My lips are dry
My heart aches
My soul is parched
My skin flakes
My body is arched
My pen shakes
How long will I have to wait?
For you to manifest
From my thoughts to reality
Till I get blessed
with your appearance.
What do I do with my sensuality
Its of no use, theres no coherence
between beauty and the image
Without you
I am the bark without the sap
A mirror without a reflection
A child without a lap
A voice without inflection
A beauty that could be
But without light you cannot see
Since You
My Light
Is not to be found

T. O....IN SOME WAY, YOU HAVE CREATED A LIMBO STATE OF MIND OR SOUL..... OR PERHAPS A ROMANCE GONE AWRY, I GUESS.... TELL YOU WHAT THOUGH, MYSTIQUE IS A VIRTUE OF POETIC MASTERY, SO EITHER WAY I MUST SAY....JOB WELL DONE, AS PER USUAL, YOUNG LADY'''''''''''''''''''''''''FJR
